The art class is an amazing opportunity to experience Florence through the eyes of a painter and to immerse yourself in the colours and lights of the Renaissance. The class is a Plein Air in a piazza next to the hotel, or on the river side. I'm a painter and art teacher and also a tourist guide. We will use acrylic colours technique, because we can paint with acrylic as oil, or water color and most important of all it gives us enormous possibilities to spread our fantasy. We will use examples from art history to choose everybody's personal style. You will have the best souvenir from Florence, a small masterpiece painted by you. I'll teach you how to lay a colour base and how to shape the painting. Our aim is to understand how a painting was created in history and to try to quickly complete an art work.
The painting experience will take place on Pontevecchio OR Giardino delle Rose OR Piazza di Santo Spirito depending on weather conditions.

Ulisse was a wonderful instructor. She was fun to talk to and very knowledgeable about the area. She offered help and taught us new painting skills. It was something I always wanted to do and very glad we did it.

This was the most amazing art experience, a highlight of our time in Rome! Ulisse was the best, she made this an unforgettable memory in Florence. She guided, coached and encouraged us as we painted our scene. She was very accommodating and communicated throughout. She shared her own story with us and taught us about Florence and art. My wife and I would highly recommend this to anyone, regardless of skill level.

This was one of the most memorable experiences from our time in Italy! Ulisse was amazing, a highlight from our trip. She picked us up and took us to a quiet little spot and proceeded to guide, help, and encourage us as we water painted a scene. She was a treasure, full of knowledge and life experience, we talked the entire time we painted and we felt like friends after our time together. Would highly recommend to any age or skill level.

Our guide was not only a very talented artist but also explained a philosophical depth and understanding of the history of art of Florence. A highlight of our trip! Thank you!

Wonderful person just not very directive and there was no place to go really to paint. It was a lot of money for a three hour free for all.

Highly recommend!! My daughter and I thoroughly enjoyed our painting experience with Ulisse. She was so friendly and even asked which painting medium we’d like to use. She met us at our hotel and took us to one of her favorite spots in a less touristy (and beautiful) spot in Florence. We never felt rushed and she gave encouraging instruction/tips. One of our favorite experiences in Florence!

I had a wonderful time with my guide. She took me on a short tour of the corner of the city we were in, custom selected the space that we sat to paint based on a discussion with me, and gave me good recommendations on a local art store to explore. I left with brush recommendations, valuable tips on being patient with my artwork, and the best en plein air watercolor painting I have ever done. It is of a simple window but I really think I captured the shadow and character of it! Held back one star because of a little difficulty in booking - working on that with Viator and the vendor now.
